“I had to find a last minute sitter during the holiday season and thankfully Katie was available. She did fantastic, and gave my cat proper attention for the morning check-ins. My cat freaks out when left alone, so for a multiple day trip, having a sitter who would pet/brush/play with her is essential. The cat was nice and happy when we got back, so I’m very grateful for Katie’s service.”
“Alison did an amazing job with both of my cats! One needed medicine every 12 hours and she was on top of it. She sent multiple pictures and sent me a great description after each visit.”
About: I was a Rover sitter from 2016-2020 in Houston with over 75 5-star ratings until the pandemic shutdown. I live in beautiful Nacogdoches now with my poodle mix Poppy. I will care for your home and dogs, and ensure their security, as if they were my own. I will send at least two photos a day to show you how well they are doing. Rest and relax while you are away knowing they are being personally cared for by a mature professional. Poppy travels with me for overnight stays. She is housebroken and will be slowly and carefully introduced to your animals and if they don't get along I will keep them separated. I stay home full time and am always available. Your pets needs will be my first priority. I will set the alarm before I leave if applicable. Poppy spends the night in her crate but the rest of the time she is by my side when I work in the garden or in the house.
About: Being a pet owner myself I will take extreme pride and care of your fur baby. I have had animals my entire life, I am middle aged, responsible, professional, trustworthy, and will care for your baby as if it was mine. Why mess with the rest when your animals can have the BEST! Let's connect! I am currently not working F/T and have plenty of time to care for your pets. I do drop ins, walks, weekends, and lots of playtime and exercise. I have my own dog and he is my fur human. He is in the pic!! Your animals will be in the best care! I prefer to do drop ins, walks, or build the trust to watch in your home.
About: I’ve had all kinds of pets my entire life and will give your furry loved one the attention and care that they deserve. I have trained all my dogs myself and even worked at a grooming salon and volunteered at multiple pet shelters. I have a part time job at the moment and will be available anytime after 9am. I can walk your furry loved one, pet sit, or just check in on them if you have a busy schedule or are out of town. I have a large backyard and a great neighborhood to walk your dog(s) if needed. I also have a dog myself who likes very much to play and keep your dog or dogs company.
About: I’ve been dog sitting regularly down in Texas while I have been attending university. Mostly friends and friends of friends have used my services to go on spontaneous outings that are not possible with a pet. My work has flexible hours which gives me ample time to care for your critters. I like keeping myself busy so I love taking on pet sitting tasks. I do not offer boarding in my own home. I love doing house sitting because the animals are much more relaxed being in their own space.
About: I have several years of experience working with other people's animals as well as a lifetime of caring for my own pets. I've had a love for animals since I can remember and have experience caring for the smallest Chihuahuas to the largest Great Pyrenees and I love them all! I am currently attending school online, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pups and give them plenty of attention as well as an extremely flexible schedule! I currently live in a large apartment where your pups are definitely welcome on all the furniture 😆. I'm located in a good neighborhood near several trails and I love to go on walks in the afternoons with the dogs that I work with!
“Courtney was great with my cat! Awesome communication, loved getting pictures while I was away, and my cat seemed to enjoy her visits! It was great knowing someone was checking in on her while I was on vacation”
“Sophia is the best! We always feel anxious leaving our fur babies but we could enjoy our trip knowing they were in safe hands! Our big boy Tex even came out to greet Sophia and he only does that when he really feels safe with someone! We can't recommend Sophia more!”
“Amazing Cat Sitting Service! I cannot recommend Gaby enough! She took such wonderful care of Lulu while I was away. From the moment we met, I could tell she truly loved animals and understood how to make pets feel comfortable. Gaby followed all my instructions perfectly. I especially appreciated the daily updates, complete with photos and videos, which reassured me that Lulu was happy and well-cared for. It’s such a relief to know I can trust someone who genuinely cares about my pet’s well-being and also cares for wild animals, some of which visit us every day. If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional cat sitter, look no further than Gaby. She is truly the best!”
About: I’m the person that goes to meet your dog before I meet you. I have a rescue of my own that I love very much. I can play with any animal, and I love to go on walks.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since the age of 8. Outdoor dogs to inside dogs. Big and small. Old and young. I absolutely love animals and I always have! I am currently pregnant and just want to work from home. So I have all the availability in the world to welcome your furry friend into my home. I live in an apartment complex. It is very quiet. We have a long trail through the woods that your furry friend could enjoy if that were to stay with me!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs, cats, and homes for around 6 years now! I have been trusted by friends and family to administer medicine to senior doggos, help house train and care for puppies while i’m there, and have even raised my own puppy and cat! I am currently on summer break from SFASU and have weeks at a time where I am completely free, and I’d love to take that time to care for your pets! When school starts back I will update my availability! I always make sure all doors and fences are closed or locked when they need to be to ensure we don’t have any escapees. I also will make sure if I am walking your puppies or playing with them, I will always do it in a safe environment and in a safe way. I will watch your dogs/cats like a hawk to make sure they are not getting into anything harmful for them or eating something they should not. I will love your pets like they are my own and always take their safety very seriously!

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and have owned all sorts. I have been told I am the dog whisperer because strays and injured tend to find me. I rescue puppies, foster them and find them new homes. I am available most days mornings or lunchtime. Afternoons are normally my busy time but I am pretty flexible. I can help some weekends but prefer weekdays. Our dog Bentley sleeps with us and travels with us like family. He is also crate trained so I have experience with that as well.
